Some problems were found with the configuration of task ‘:app:generateSafeArgsDebug’ (type ‘ArgumentsGenerationTask’). After upgrading gradle to 7.0

I just came across this issue too when upgrading to Gradle 7. Managed to fix it by switching my old navigation safe args plugin to the AndroidX version – Not sure how I missed that during my AndroidX refactor

// From
classpath("android.arch.navigation:navigation-safe-args-gradle-plugin:1.0.0")

// To
classpath("androidx.navigation:navigation-safe-args-gradle-plugin:2.4.1")
